Kam na mauri ni kabane.

Thanks for connecting me here. I am here with my husband watcing your videos. What a wonderful idea to put all these South Pacifi related films together. It makes searching so easy.

A great site.
Ko bati n raba.

Mauri Esperanza, thank you for your kind words on my site. i'm glad you enjoyed the videos. I find listening to a drama in your own language quite different to when its done in English. Hence I've posted these excellent dramas which depict Kiribati people and culture so well. I also think its good listening practice for international Kiribati people like yourself who don't have a chance to use and listen to Kiribati outside of home. Tiabobo moa...

Thanks for posting all these videos! I enjoyed the movie, Te Ribana! Though I fully understand the language, I've never been to Kiribati. Someday, someday...but for now, I can only experience Kiribati on Youtube.

Ko raba & Mahalo
